LONDON: Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff said Red Bull's criticism of seven-times champion Lewis Hamilton in the aftermath of his collision with Formula One title rival Max Verstappen at the British Grand Prix were below the belt and had crossed a line.

The Milton Keynes-based team, feeling Hamilton had got off easy, had asked stewards to review the incident but their petition was dismissed on Thursday ahead of the Hungarian Grand Prix for lack of new evidence. "We wanted to bring a little bit of respect back to the discussion," Wolff told reporters on Friday in a video conference from the Hungaroring track."We understand that emotions can run high. But we felt that line was overstepped."

Wolff said Red Bull had elaborated on those criticisms in the submissions they made to stewards as part of their petition for a review.
